Simple Egg Salad

I could live on egg salad! And that’s easy because it takes me five minutes to make my low fat, easy egg salad. I prefer it simple with just yellow mustard and light mayo but I know a lot of people like to add extras like pickle relish, onion, celery, olives, etc. So go ahead. Use my simple, healthy recipe as a starter and then make it your own. But for me, plain old egg salad on some whole grain bread with lots of lettuce and tomato – it’s the perfect breakfast, and a perfect lunch.

For a while people were avoiding eggs because they contain cholesterol but all the latest research indicates that they may contain cholesterol but they do not raise serum cholesterol. This is good news because eggs have so many nutrients including complete protein; lutein for your eyes; and choline (in the yolk) for your brain and to reduce inflammation. They also contain sulphur to give you beautiful hair & skin, and strong nails. Here’s a link to some of the latest research on eggs: http://www.prevention.com/health/health-concerns/latest-research-health-benefits-eggs

Now that eggs are back, you can enjoy this easy and healthy egg salad. But even my delicious egg salad is no fun if it takes ten minutes to peel a boiled egg. So to make things even easier, I can show you how to make perfect, easy-to-peel hard boiled eggs.

Good to know eggs aren’t bad for you. I use eggs almost every day as a source for protein amoung other things like nuts and beans, so I don’t have a limit either. Thanks for the article, Jenny. Great info about eggs…

This is very simple and nutritious recipe. I take good care of my Mom who suffered a stroke and try to avoid giving her egg because of cholesterol The information about egg you share with us is very helpful, now I can make her enjoy recipes that content egg, maybe one egg will be enough once a week. My Mom love salad with egg, now I can start making one for her. Thank you in sharing this healthful information. I wish you well, and always in high spirit. I enjoy watching your video in You tube, and learned a lot from your show. More power and God Bless You.
